<p>Well, I've given in to these Chances posts...they're just so tempting!</p>
<p>I only want to apply to schools with good theater programs, but other than Vassar and Tisch, I'm essentially clueless. I'm a rising junior and just want a bit of direction.</p>
<p>Where could these stats get me in, as they stand now? I'm really lost, guys. And some of you really seem to know what you're talking about, so here goes nothing...</p>
